It’s a very cool package, a bit similar to multiple cursors, very convenient for changing variable names (especially that it has a great feature where the change is restricted to the current function). I am also a Lispy user. Lispy requires Iedit (and has a binding for it different from the default one – M-i – while Iedit’s default I’m used to is C-;). The problem is, when I added Lispy to my Emacs, it disabled the default C-; (and only installed M-i in Elisp buffers). Now, I admit that M-i may be a better (or at least not worse) keybinding for Iedit than C-;. It’s default binding is tab-to-tab-stop, which is one of those useless commands Emacs has had probably for decades. Personally, I’m accustomed to C-;, so I wanted Lispy not to interfere with Iedit setting that keybinding.
